Do iPads Have Microphones? Yes. Since the original, every model of the iPad has included at least one built-in microphone. Mics on the iPad are pretty subtle; they look like small pinholes poked into the housing of the iPad, or, on some models, in the camera assembly. Where Is the Microphone on an iPad? The microphone’s location on your iPad and how many microphones it has are different depending on the model....

Despite the vast number of Marvel superhero games out there and the enormous library Electronic Arts (EA) has built up over the years, there hasn’t been much overlap—until now. That’s about to change since the two companies have announced plans to collaborate on at least three new titles based on unspecified Marvel properties. Except Iron Man. They’re definitely working on a new Iron Man. The last Marvel game EA had a hand in was 2005’s not very well received Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects....

AI filters are getting so good that one click is enough to make almost any photograph look great. In fact, even some pro photographers no longer edit their photos. So, do we need to edit our photos anymore? Or can we let AI take care of it all? “I’d say that if I’m taking pictures just for fun then, yes, the apps on my iPhone are enough to make my images sharp, accurately exposed, correctly white balanced, and I can remove imperfections at a level that I’d be comfortable to share on social media,” Cheryl Dell’Osso, Zenfolio’s director of customer engagement, told Lifewire via email....

What Is an ET File? A file with the ET file extension is a WPS Spreadsheets Workbook file created by WPS Office’s spreadsheet program. Much like Microsoft’s XLSX format, ET files support charts and formulas and store data in rows and columns of cells. ETT files are similar, but are template files used to create multiple similar ET files. The Easiteach software also uses ET files, but as lesson files for storing animations, images, text, and other teaching resources....

OpenAI’s text-to-image AI system called DALL-E2 appears to have created its own system of written communication. It’s an example of how hard it is to interpret the results of advanced AI systems. “Because of the size and depth of large models, it is very difficult to explain model behavior,” Teresa O’Neill, the director of solutions architecture for natural language understanding at iMerit, told Lifewire in an email interview. “This is one of the core challenges, and in some cases, ethical issues with increasingly powerful models....

Currently, regular Qi “wireless” charging can only manage around 7.5-10 Watts of power, and a lot of that goes to waste as battery-damaging heat. Meanwhile, fast-charging via a wire is becoming more common—the iPhone has done it for a while—but Oppo’s 150 W tech is more powerful even than pro laptop chargers. “Fast charging a battery is more than just dumping as much voltage and current as possible at it,” Akshay VR of Solar Labs told Lifewire via email....

Overall Findings By all measures, UHD delivers a higher-quality, higher-resolution image than FHD (1080p). The trade-off is that UHD costs more. If you’re more concerned about your budget than resolution, FHD offers a perfectly fine viewing experience. UHD (4K) slightly elevates that experience, especially on larger screens. A 1080p TV is an FHD TV. FHD stands for Full HD or Full High Definition and refers to 1080p video resolution, which is 1,920-pixel columns by 1,080-pixel rows....

ReMarkable, maker of the beautiful, slimline notebook you see in these pictures, is doing remarkably well, according to the money people. Just like how many iPad owners love their tablets and prefer them over laptop computers, so reMarkable notebook owners absolutely love their e-ink tablets, despite, or perhaps because of, their limitations. “To say that I LOVE traditional notebooks is an understatement. I own too many calligraphy pens to count, I have a full bookshelf of notebooks I’ve deemed too pretty to write in, and my oldest daughter is named Avery (the idea came from my favorite office supplies),” e-ink notebook superfan and PR consultant Amanda Holdsworth told Lifewire via email....

You’d think that browser history would be a rich seam when you’re searching for, well, for anything. Previously-visited pages have already been chosen—by you—and should appear at the top of any search. And yet your browser’s history feature is probably junk. Half the pages you visit seem to be missing, and what about the actual words on those pages? Why can’t you search for them? That’s where Zhenyi Tan’s History Book comes in....
